Engadget - Broken promise: Double Fine's 'Broken Age' Kickstarter mess.Whether or not Schafer made the right choice is a question for another
time, and for people who are far more intimately involved with Broken Age's
development than us here at Engadget. What we do know is that one of the
most prominent examples of a crowdfunding success story just became one of
the most prominent examples of why consumers should be wary of backing
crowdfunded projects. If long-established players like Double Fine pull in
more than eight times the capital they originally asked from fans yet still
can't meet a grossly over-inflated budget, that's what we'd call a warning
sign.
